# How to know what’s pending every morning without calling anyone

> Ask Kyrra “what’s pending today?” or have it send you a short list every morning at a time you choose, built from what your team reported.

To know what’s pending every morning, tell Kyrra once: “every weekday at 9 am, send me what’s pending.” From then on it sends you a short list at that time, built from what your team reported the day before. You can also ask “what’s pending today?” at any moment, and get one short answer instead of calling three people.

## What goes wrong today?

The owner starts the day on the phone. The master is asked about stitching, the supervisor about the thread, accounts about the payment that was promised last week. Each call interrupts someone’s work, and the answers live in their heads until the next call. Read [why the owner can’t take a Sunday off](/blog/owner-cant-take-sunday-off/).

## How does it work with Kyrra?

**Set it up once, in your own words:**

1. “Every weekday at 9 am, send me what’s pending.”
2. Kyrra reads it back in plain words. You say yes.
3. Next morning at 9, the list arrives on WhatsApp.

**What the list can hold**, depending on what your business keeps track of:

- orders due this week and the stage each is at
- lots that haven’t moved in a few days
- raw material that was promised and hasn’t come
- payments due or promised, and who is following up
- open findings, like 6 pieces short on order 214, with who found it and when

You can change it any time: “add dispatch to my morning list”, “move it to 8:30”, “stop it on Sundays”.

## Can I hear only when something is wrong?

Yes. A routine can check first and stay quiet when there’s nothing to say:

| You say | What happens |
|---|---|
| “Every morning, if any order is past its due date, send me the list.” | On a day when nothing is late, nothing comes |
| “Every Monday, send me open findings older than a week.” | A short list of problems nobody has closed |
| “Tell me when 214 reaches packing.” | One message, when it happens |
| “Tell me when any lot is rejected.” | A message each time, as it happens |

## Can my team get their own lists?

Yes. Each person can have their own, at their own time, in their own language:

- the master gets the day’s lots at 8:30
- accounts gets the day’s dues at 10
- the supervisor gets raw material due today

The owner can set these up for anyone. When someone leaves the team, their routines stop.

## What does the owner get back?

The first hour of the day. Instead of calling around, you read one short message and call only about what’s actually stuck. Everyone else stops being interrupted to answer the same question. That is the point of a [company brain](/blog/what-is-a-company-brain/).

## How do I find what has gone quiet?

Ask “which orders haven’t moved in three days?” and Kyrra lists them, with who last reported on each. Your existing Excel and CSV sheets, photos and PDFs can come in too, so the list starts from what you already track.

## Questions owners ask

### How do I get a list of what’s pending every morning?

Tell Kyrra once, for example “every weekday at 9 am, send me what’s pending”. From then on it sends a short list at that time, built from what your team reported. You can also ask “what’s pending today?” any time.

### Can I get the list only when something is wrong?

Yes. Say, for example, “every morning, if any order is past its due date, send me the list”. On a day when nothing is late, Kyrra sends nothing.

### Can each person get their own morning list?

Yes. The master can get the day’s lots, accounts the day’s dues and reception the day’s bookings, each at their own time. The owner can set these up for anyone on the team.

### Can Kyrra tell me the moment something happens?

Yes. Say “tell me when 214 reaches packing” or “tell me when any lot is rejected”, and Kyrra messages you when the record changes.

### How do I find work that has gone quiet?

Ask “which orders haven’t moved in three days?” and Kyrra lists them, with who last reported on each.
